Amazon Prime Day is almost here: These are the best early deals to shop before October Big Deal Days

We know the Amazon Prime Big Deal Days event is coming up soon, so it’s time to start thinking about what you may want to snag at a discount during the sale. Some may shudder at the thought of holiday shopping already, but if you pay the $139 annual fee for Prime, these sale events are a great time to stock up on essentials and cross things off your shopping list well before the mad rush at the end of the year.
